Summer · April – June
A proper inspection is a 90-minute to 2-hour walk-through, not a 10-minute meter read. The electrician tests each circuit under load, opens the main switchboard for a heat check, and calculates total load versus MCB rating.
The audit visit itself is ₹100–₹300 and usually absorbed into the fix bill. Below are standalone fix costs.
| Item | Cost 2026 (₹) | Frequency |
|---|---|---|
| Full audit visit | 300 – 1,000 | Yearly |
| MCB replacement | 200 – 600 per MCB | When faulty |
| RCCB / ELCB installation | 1,500 – 3,500 | Once per home |
| New AC point (15A) | 800 – 2,000 | Per point |
| Switchboard replacement (6-point) | 400 – 1,000 + material | Every 8–12 years |
| Earthing pit renewal | 3,000 – 8,000 | Every 4–5 years |
| Inverter battery replacement | 8,000 – 18,000 | Every 4–5 years |
| Ceiling fan capacitor | 150 – 400 | Every 3–5 years |
Nine out of ten Indian homes inspected show at least three of the faults below. All are ₹200–₹2,000 fixes; leaving them means a 40°C afternoon "power off, no fan, no AC" emergency.
Pre-summer inspection rates are 20–30% higher in mid-May than mid-March, because demand triples. In April, most Solve24 electricians are booked 1–2 days out; in May, 3–5 days out in Delhi, Mumbai and Bangalore. An emergency visit past 8 PM adds ₹200–₹500.
A Solve24 electrician profile shows years of experience, area of work, and reviews. You agree the rate on WhatsApp before the visit. Nothing is added on the day by a platform — the ₹300–₹800 you agree is what you pay. Commission-based apps typically add 20–30% for the same scope.
Every electrician on Solve24 lists directly — no platform commission on the job. See real reviews, agree the rate on WhatsApp, and pay them directly.
₹300–₹1,000 for a 90-minute to 2-hour audit visit. Repairs are billed separately. The visit fee is usually absorbed into the repair bill if any work is done.
Second week of March. Rates are lowest, availability is best, and fixes are done before AC/cooler load stresses the wiring in April.
90 minutes to 2 hours for a standard 2BHK. Larger homes with an inverter and 3+ ACs take 2.5–3 hours. Ask for a written checklist at the end.
List every appliance and its wattage on a paper. Note any switch that has ever felt warm, any bulb that flickers, any tingle from a tap or fridge. That saves the electrician 20 minutes of diagnostic time.
Strongly recommended, especially in homes with children or elderly members. An RCCB trips within 30 milliseconds of a leak-to-earth current — fast enough to prevent electrocution. Cost ₹1,500–₹3,500 including installation.
